WHY do you still need a Realtor ? Are Realtors as needed as they once were? With access to Internet and the once over guarded information many buyers have asked .. do we still need a REALTOR?

Similar questions were asked when the internet started posting information about houses and cars ... and well most everything else. There was the rumour a decade or more ago that " Shopping malls will CLOSE" Who will go to a mall when they can shop on line???"

 Did you go to the mall this holiday season?

 Yes, the internet is a fantastic resource. Whether you are 5 years old or 82 ,checking out information for free is easily accessible on the net through your phone, on your blackberry's, ipads, tablets, car dashboards and watches. The information is invaluable. The good news is, in the real estate world we are getting very educated sellers and buyers coming into the market place. Do you need a realtor not just the internet.....Absolutley! According to the National Association of Realtors NAR, in their 2010 profile of home buyers and sellers, 89 percent of homebuyers use the internet to search for homes and it does not diminish the use of professional realtors. Likely that number is higher for 2011!....>>visit "MY BLOG"...
